For all of you perceiving the GLDT as too vast, there is a useful new feature in the just released version 0.2 of gnuclad: slicing subtrees out of the whole cladogram.
Here is a small demonstration on Debian, Slackware and Red Hat.
On a related note, the new release also offers to scan files and directories, as seen with the GLDT folder or, as a larger example, gnuclad’s own hierarchy.
Apart from being able to download the source files (from the tarball) and make your own version with the help of gnuclad, you can now with ease contribute to the GLDT project by submitting new distributions – or suggest changes – by using this form.
Also, we now have an RSS feed for updates.
Today we celebrate passing 100.000 visitors to the site since we started publishing the timeline here (i.e. no longer on kde-look.org). Hooray!
Donjan Rodic has released a cladogram tree generator named gnuclad – check this cool project out. With the use of his new tool he has completed version 10.2 of the GNU/Linux distro timeline!
Note how the svg version now has links to the corresponding distributions. Open it in your favorite svg-friendly web browser and click the labels – voilà.
